On Saturday, May 4, we will be competing in the 2nd Annual Grill on the Hill Eggfest in Gaylord, Mich. Held at Treetops Resort, this event brings serious pitmasters and backyards barbecue enthusiasts together to compete for the prize. And YOU can be a judge.

The event is free to attend, but to taste barbecue from one of the 25 competing teams, you’ll have to purchase a tasting bracelet for $30 per person. That gives you unlimited tastings, 4 beer samplings, and a voting ticket. After you get your fill, simply drop your ticket in the bucket of your favorite.

Last year, we placed 4th overall out of 20 teams and won the wings category. This year, we’re doing pork and we can’t wait to show you what we’ve got.

We will also be launching our first rub, Down With the Swine, and the first 50 attendees to ask for it will get a free 4-ounce sample.

See you there!
